Eight Hours of Terror Page #3

---

you two will be baby killers.

Please, just let them save the baby.

If there are cops there,

I'll handle them.

You've got guts, girl!

Start on the baby again.

What will happen to us?

The cops will be there.

- Still not there?

- Just round that corner.

See that? Not a cop in sight!

Look! There's a jeep.

Now shut up.

Speak and the baby dies.

Watch it!

Everybody calm down.

- What are you doing?

- Sabu, no!

He's almost there.

Shut up or you're dead.

Hello, there.

Hello. If you don't mind,

I'll have a smoke.

An unscheduled bus?

These people are trying

to meet the Tokyo train.

They got stuck at the station.

Good work, my man.

Nothing out of the ordinary

on the road?

- Want a cigarette?

- No, thanks.

The bridge at Okusawa

needs repairs.

No sign of two strange men?

A couple of gangsters on the loose.

No, we haven't seen anyone like that.

If we haven't seen them by now,

they'll be somewhere else.

They could be anywhere

in these mountains.

- Robbing banks would be easier.

- For sure.

Any landslides up ahead?

Not when we came through.

We'd better get going.

We'll miss the train.

Sorry to hold you up.

Take care on the road.

Quick, do something

to stop her crying.

What's going on here?

Oh, it's a little baby.

What's wrong with it, ma'am?

Detective!

We'd like to arrest

her philandering husband.

I'm afraid that's out of my jurisdiction.

Thank you.

Car 7, this is headquarters.

Bank robbers are still on the run.

Shut it off now!

Hey, anything wrong?

Shut the damn thing off!

Get inside!

What the hell? Are you a pervert?

Stupid cops.

Hey, Bro, we're stuck.

All the damn mud.

Leave the kid here.

- Where are you going?

- I'm not pushing.

I don't care who you are, you push.

Let me tell you...

I'll lure one away,

you men take out the other one.

Stop whispering!

It's been three hours on the bus.

I need to do something.

- Go do it over there.

- No privacy.

Leave it to me.

- You gonna push it, or not?

- Yes, of course.

You know,

I fancied you from the start.

You and me could run off

and split the money.

What do you say?

Come on, we'll be in it together.

It's your best option.

You think about it!

Have you finished?

Were you serious

about taking me away?

Of course I was.

Okay, then, take me with you.

Really? You're a feisty one.

The US bases are all closing down,

there's no work.

I was wondering what I should do.

I'll take care of you.

Don't rush it.

Go check the bus.

You're very careful, aren't you?

One, two, three!

We've got plenty of time.

Just a minute. I need to get ready.

You have to be gentle with a woman.

Is that right?

Help me!

Help me, Bro!

Come help me, Bro!

Sabu!

Come on, let's get the bus moving.

- Sabu?

- Bro!

Sabu!

Bro, she tricked me.

You can't walk like that.

Bro, don't leave me here!

You betrayed me!

I'll tell the cops everything!

Damn you!

I'll tell them everything!

I don't want to die.

That's it. Just a little more.

We did it.

Come on, hurry up. Get on board.

- What about the woman?

- Forget her, get on!

Leave her.

He'll be back at any minute!

Driver, get moving.

Tomio!

What are you doing? Quick!

Tomio, hurry up and get on the bus!

Now!

I'll save you.

Let me drive!

Hurry UP-

Drive up here.

Hold on tight.

Be careful.

Damn them.

Is there any water?

Thank you.

Hey, girl, you did a great job.

Gangs are a symptom of society's decay.

We can use this incident

to spread our message.

Don't you agree?

If not for the pistol,

I would've got him.

I would've have taken them both

with my little fingers.

Feeling better?

What will we do

about my engagement ring?

You're lucky to be alive.

A woman's jewelry means more

than life itself. Isn't that right?

You were an army doctor,

weren't you?

I read about you.

A doctor who ended up

as a killer.

Why did you kill your wife?

Sorry, I shouldn't have asked.

I didn't mean to.

She thought you were dead.

It was natural that she got remarried.

I was gone ten years,

I yearned for a familiar face.

My mother and my brother

were both dead.

I went to her hometown,

she was there.

As we were talking,

her new husband came home.

He was really drunk.

He insulted me, and I hit him.

She tried to stop me.

All my pent-up rage came out.

When I came to my senses,

they were both dead.

I guess you still loved her.

Would you do that for me?

No, you couldn't. You're a coward.

Hey, the gangsters left their bag.

I bet that's got

the stolen 20 million in there.

Shall we take a look?

But it's all over now.

With that,

we could save the company.

Don't push me.

Not so red now, are you?

With that money,

we could win seats in parliament.

We've had a hard life,

scrubbing all the way.

How stupid of them

to leave the loot behind.

- Easy come, easy go.

- They won't give up so easily.

With a bus,

we're the hare and they're the tortoise.

That's no race, is it, driver?

SHORT-CUT TO HASHIMOTO -

5 MILES

What's the time?

- Our watches...

- I've still got mine.

It's five past ten.

Ten o'clock. Should be no problem.

What's no problem?

You can handle both of them

with your little fingers.

Yes, today we fought off

a gang of robbers.

When we get to town,

we'll be in all the newspapers.

Good publicity, eh?

- What about us?

- I don't care.

So what if your sugar-daddy finds out?

They stole my ring.

It'll be all over the papers.

He'll buy me a new ring.

What can you do for me?

You can't make money reading books.

Let's celebrate with a drink.

My Whiskey!

The crooks left it behind.

Have a drop.

Here's to beating the crooks, cheers!

- That's a bad omen.

- No, not at all. Here, use this.

You were the best of all.

Without you,

we'd be in serious trouble now.

Have a drink to celebrate.

There's one thing I wanted to ask you.

Back there in the woods,

how did you get him?

He fell in a bear-trap, that's all.

I know that,

but that's not what I meant.

How did you get him

deep into the woods?

Don't be so rude!

Shut up.

You students know nothing about life.

She saved us, not you cowards.

You have no right to question her.

You don't know anything!

You just spout slogans!

You could learn something

from her life.

We can't imagine life

without a black man.

Give it back.

Not until you tell us

how you lured him.

So you're all ganging up on me?

Yes, I'm a whore at the US army base.

A different world to all of you.

Is being saved by me

some sort of disgrace for you?

Don't you dare try to judge me!

Come sit up here

and look at the view.

The driver's pretending

he's all for civil rights.

What do you mean?

The mixing of yellow and black blood.

She's running a temperature.

- How much longer to town?

- About an hour.

- Any water left?

- Water?

I need to cool her off.

This is bad.

In babies, a fever like this

can quickly lead to meningitis.

Not the baby again?

We're out of water.

Look. There's water.

Stop the bus.

- What for?

- To get water.
